Nestled in Benalmádena, property HQL-RSMQG represents a modern corner penthouse that balances coastal lifestyle with considered design. Listed by JMA Prime Estate, this three-bedroom residence offers expansive outdoor living, direct sea views and turnkey presentation — a clear example of the agency’s approach for international buyers.

Discovering this Benalmádena penthouse with JMA Prime Estate

Property image 2

This penthouse spans 122 m² of interior living across three bedrooms and 2.5 bathrooms, and delivers a rare 152 m² of outdoor space: a 42 m² main terrace plus a 110 m² rooftop solarium. Priced at EUR 1,350,000 and built in 2022, the home was conceived for indoor–outdoor living and immediate occupancy. As shown in the photos, large windows frame the sea and connect the open-plan living area to the terrace.

Key practical comforts are visible in the images: private lift access into the apartment, air conditioning throughout, quality finishes in the open kitchen and generous storage including two parking spaces and a dedicated storeroom. The community facilities — an infinity pool overlooking the Mediterranean and a sea-facing gym — reinforce the lifestyle this property sells.

What makes the penthouse stand out — features and finish

This corner penthouse was designed to prioritise light, privacy and outdoor use. Its corner position creates additional glazing on two facades, increasing daylight and cross-ventilation — details that are apparent in the property images. The rooftop solarium is purpose-built for entertaining, with unobstructed panoramic views of the coastline and flexible zones for dining, lounging and sunbathing.

Standout features • Bright open-plan living flowing to a 42 m² terrace • 110 m² rooftop solarium with panoramic sea view • Private lift access, two parking spaces and storage • Community infinity pool and sea-view gym • Furnished, air conditioning, elevator — move-in ready

How the images tell the story

The gallery (automatically inserted) highlights the material quality and spatial flow: the living area’s floor-to-ceiling glazing, the terrace’s seamless connection to the interior, and the rooftop’s uninterrupted horizon. These photographs help overseas buyers judge light, orientation and finishing — factors JMA Prime Estate emphasises in its listings to reduce the uncertainty of remote purchases.

The agency’s website summarises these services and provides the full listing pack on request.

Benalmádena context — lifestyle and market considerations

Benalmádena sits between Málaga and Fuengirola on the Costa del Sol and attracts buyers seeking coastal convenience without Marbella’s premiums. The penthouse’s proximity (about 600 m) to Carvajal Beach and the promenade makes it suited to both full-time residents and lock-up-and-leave owners who value walkability to restaurants and year-round amenities. For investors, the combination of quality build (2022), large outdoor areas and on-site leisure facilities typically improves seasonal rental appeal and resale liquidity.

Practical advice for international buyers: prioritise documented outdoor area (terrace and solarium measurements), confirm community rules for short-term rentals if you intend to let, and request a recent community accounts statement to check reserves for pool/gym maintenance. JMA Prime Estate routinely supplies these documents for homes they present.

Why this property is a useful case study for buyers

This penthouse exemplifies how an agent’s selection criteria shape outcome: a modern build near the seafront, substantial private outdoor space and practical inclusions (parking, storage, gym) translate into both lifestyle value and market resilience. The listing demonstrates JMA Prime Estate’s ability to package these attributes clearly for an international audience, reducing negotiation friction and accelerating decisions.
